Synopsis

In a flashback, Will Scarlet and Anastasia jump through the looking glass to enter Wonderland against her mother's wishes, since she disapproves of Will. They both soon realize that life in Wonderland isn't exactly what they had both imagined. After being humiliated while attending a ball at the palace, Ana convinces Will to steal the crown jewels in order to get them out of poverty, but in an instant, Ana is caught red handed by the King who makes her a proposition she can't refuse – to marry him and be his Queen to avoid prosecution. Meanwhile, in current Wonderland, the Red Queen convinces Alice to help her acquire magic dust in exchange for information about Cyrus, who in turn has managed to skillfully escape Jafar's castle leaving the White Rabbit in a compromising situation.[2]

The Old Prisoner says that Jafar made him move giant rocks from the bottom of the stone staircase to the top. This is a reference to Sisyphus from Greek Mythology, who was punished by being forced to roll an immense boulder up a hill, only to watch it roll back down, repeating this action for eternity.

We were running cranes at Bridge studios for both Once Upon a Time and Once Upon a Time in Wonderland. The shows were only in production at the same time for one season but that’s probably a good thing as we were covering both and seemingly spending 5 days a week, 16 hours a day in green or blue screen studios, bouncing between the two productions. ."
